  3. What is Optical Detection? • The goal is to get information from light. • Usually we look for variations in the amount of light over • space... • or time... • or spectrum... • or some combination of these. • Generally the output is an electrical signal. • It may be digitized for use in a computer. • We need to measure this signal in the presence of noise. DiMarzio & McKnight, Northeastern University

  4. Course Overview 2. Sources and Radiometry 3. Noise 2-5. Detectors 6. Circuits 7. Coherent Detection 8. Signal Statistics 9. Array Detectors DiMarzio & McKnight, Northeastern University

  5. Some Detection Issues • Optics • Radiometry, Beam Shaping, and Filters • Detector Physics • Converting Optical Energy to Electrical • Receiver Circuit • Matching to Detector, Proper Biasing • Interpretation of Data • Dealing with Noise and Signal Statistics DiMarzio & McKnight, Northeastern University

  6. Spectral Response Modulation Response Responsivity Noise (NEP) Damage Level Sensitive Area Circuit Considerations Device-Specific Issues Filtering Angle, Position, Wavelength Packaging Window Transmission, Position Power Requirements Cooling/Vacuum Requirements General Detector Issues DiMarzio & McKnight, Northeastern University

  7. Square-Law Detector DiMarzio & McKnight, Northeastern University

  8. Noise Signal + Noise Ps Ps Pn DiMarzio & McKnight, Northeastern University

  9. Noise Issues • Optical Signal Power (Watts) • Normally Related to Some Desired Quantity (Reflectivity, Temperature, Distance, Magnetic Field, Scattering, Absorption, etc.) • NEP (Watts per root Hertz) • Can be Related to “NEX” • Example: NEDT DiMarzio & McKnight, Northeastern University
